Want to celebrate with me???
Ds's braces need to need to be paid for March 28th. We needed between 4000 and 4500 for our part. I'm currently at $4134. We have 8 more $50 auto drafts into the account by then so 400 more$'s. so we will hit $4534. So we will make it!!!!!
If they are actually 4000 instead of 4500 even better. They tell us on 3/28.
If they give us the 5% off for paying cash for our part that will give us a little extra! Then on to the auto drafts refunding the EF $ we had to spend. Oh boy then on to saving for the dream trip!
It has sure been rough with this being the slow period for work and paying out an extra 250 a month for ins but WOW we made it!!!!!

Cheers to you! Thats a hefty sum.
Growing up we used to get a discount for cash payments as well, but we didn't have dental insurance either so it was a cash deal back then.The Free Spirit Saver who walks the path with Greebo.

That's wonderful!
